Ashes to ashes

and when my sun sets

I will go down and fall

then again,...

 

I will rise from my ashes

when they come to call

Cabinet

wanneer de leugen voor jou continue een waarheid wordt

deze onwaarheid, een waarheid om op te stappen wordt

is het slechts een 'Coup d'Etat' die er voor zorgt

dat de zorgen om deze stap

weer aan hun vrijheid toevertrouwt worden

when lying has become to you your trade mark

and you're asked to leave

all you need to do is commit a 'Coup d' Etat '

where all your worries will be freed

Justified

someone out there, has come to me and she's no fool

someone out there, is loving me more than she should

someone out there, is loving me more... more than I ever knew

'cause loving me, is more than she ever should

she's my angel in the morning, that comes to me into my soul at night

she's that angel in the morning, that brings me into the break of light

she's that angel I never met, she's that sunrise never set

and when it did, I fell in love more than I ever should

and she became to me more a woman than she ever knew

she's my angel in the morning, that comes to me into my soul at night

she's that angel in the morning, that brings me into the break of light

and that moment I saw her, she had my soul in her heart

she's the love I never had, she's my soul and everything I have

maybe some day ahead in time, it wil be just, it will be right

it will be justified

she's my angel in the morning, that comes to me into my soul at night

she's that angel in the morning, that brings me into the break of light

Some day

Some day, life will become more than a stranger to me

some day, my life will be all that more easy to live

some day, my life will live and find its peace

some day, my life will make me sleep forever

and even my life it self won't know it did

Sound of breaking glass

 I hear the sound of breaking glass

I hear a heart breaking up, coming apart, missing a beat

I hear the sound of breaking glass

so silent, so fragile, so devastating,

so in need, so utterly complete, a glas house

looses its footing, I hear the sound...

and no one else knows

Solitude

sometimes, time doesn't live up to its promises

and takes me down a road I never wanted to go

I'd give anything, to again experience the sweetness

a love can bring

I know the pain, when it doesn't, stops and is taken away

from you, beyond your control and then it is lost forever

the truth is, once it has died in that way it is hard to find

and almost impossible to retrieve again a chance is only

given once, never twice

so when you do live on into your solitude

memories are those pieces of happiness 

that are left to you, until their silence finds you

yesterdays

 when tomorrow has chosen no longer to be

and the night can't be bothered to show

and all you have is your yesterdays

it's good to know your yesterdays

will always show
